Enrollment Fee Waiver Program

Board of Governors Fee Waiver (BOGW)

On-line fee waiver application

State law requires that students attending California Community Colleges pay an enrollment fee and a health fee.  Students enrolled in credit classes are required to pay a $20.00 per unit enrollment fee, a $14.00 per semester health fee and a maximum of $1.00 per semester Student Representation fee.  Please note: the health fee will only be waived for BOG A & B recipients.  BOG C recipients will be required to pay the $14 health fee.

The Board of Governors Fee Waiver Program provides three ways to help low income students pay fees.  The eligibility requirements for each program are listed below.  If applications have not been processed for the Board of Governors Waiver by the time of registration, fees will be charged and a refund will be made upon approval of the application.  Please note that refunds are not retroactive.  The Board of Governors Waiver is awarded for up to twelve months: fall, spring and summer and students need to reapply every fall.
